Johor Darul Ta'zim head coach Hector Bidoglio could not believe his side had to walk away empty handed against China PR's Shandong Taishan FC, with the Malaysian champions Johor Darul Ta’zim registering eight shots on target – the most by a team in a single game without a goal in the AFC Champions League Elite 2024/25 so far.

Bidoglio will expect a much sharper performance, especially as both of Johor Darul Ta'zim's wins this season have come at home and they are also unbeaten against Thais sides on the continental stage - having won three and drawn one.

Buriram United's strong start to the AFC Champions League Elite has been derailed by heavy defeats in their last two matches - 5-0 to Yokohama F. Marinos and 3-0 against Kawasaki Frontale.

With only the top eight sides to advance to the next stage, Buriram must regain their winning touch if they are to stay in the race.

Venue: Sultan Ibrahim Stadium (Johor Bahru)

Kick-off: Tuesday, 20:00 (UTC+8)
